And poor Brent is stuck in Wisconsin. Maybe ABC wants him to explain to Wisconsin fans that their team is good, but they're no USC. Sort of like he did in Baton Rouge two weeks ago, and Lincoln last week. In his defense, though, he was right in Lincoln.

Guys, they assigned Brent/Kirk to that game thinking that Iowa was going to be 3-0 as well, but the geniuses at the WWL forget that Iowa St owns Iowa. Oh well, since their are no great games and the 8pm game is getting regional coverage, does it really matter.

Best news is Erin Andrews gets to work 2 games in Florida and neither involves the Gators

This week, you will finally get to see the greatness that is UNC quarterback TJ Yates and receivers Brandon Tate, Brooks Foster and Hakeem Nicks...as well as the ugliness that is the rest of the Tar Heels.

Getting Erin Andrews on Thursday nights almost makes up for having to listen to that braying jacka*s Craig James yeeeeee-haw his way through a game. Wait, I just realized CJ might get to work a USC game this year, since we play ASU on Thanksgiving. Hmmm, good thing it's a holiday Thursday so I can get my drink on early.

Nooooooooooooooo.....Pam Ward doing another WVU game. Absolutely the worst. Let's see, during the WVU-Marshall game, she must have made at least ten blatent blunders (e.g. "The Mountaineers will be heading back to Huntington right after the game") not including the man-voice inane comments throughout the game. I don't think ESPN could find a worse announcer if they picked one through a lottery.

The reason that Brent Musburger has been assigned to Iowa-Wisconsin has to do with his other duty as the co-host of NASCAR racing on ABC during the "Chase for the NEXTEL Cup." The next race is tomorrow in Dover, DE. It is a shorter trip from Madison to Dover than from Los Angeles to Dover.
